struct property and propertygrid

Ok here is the problem. I have a struct property on an object that I
want to edit with the property grid. One of the properties of the
properties of the struct is supposed to be read only to the user.

The inital problem is that when you use the ExpandableObjectConverter
as the type converter the values reset themselfs back to their orginal
values on edit. Most likely because the Propertygrid has a copy of the
value and not the value itself.

So I found by overloading the CreateInstance GetCreateInstanceSupported
Methods of the typeconverter I could get the value in. However now all
my Properties are Writable (even the ones without a "set" implemented)
What is the right way to handle a stuct as a property?
